It's here! The NECN Weather App has been released for iPhone, iPod, iPad and Android! We were awfully picky about this application - I didn't want to have an app I wouldn't be proud to use for my own weather needs...and that's hard to find! In the end, I truly believe this product is superior to any other weather app you'll find that covers New England weather - or the nation, for that matter. Our viewers have been LOVING the app - tons of terrific feedback. In fact, the screen shot above is from Twitter user @K_Seas, who is a fan of the NECN weather app! Here are some of my favorite features:

Radar turns to full screen in landscape mode. Uses same radar and color scheme we use on our NECN broadcasts!

Customize your home location, but also set additional locales to check weather in your favorite vacation spot or where family and friends are.

Please note the forecast information used in the 10-day and hourly forecasts are from a national database, since all locations are covered in this app. That includes for here at home, in New England.

That said, in the very near future you'll get an update to the app with a "Video" option that will have our latest video forecast - temperatures, accumulation maps, and everything else we show on NECN!

Click the "i" button on the top right of the radar page and you'll see an option to view satellite, road weather, wind speed, tropical satellite, temperature and snow cover,a s well as real-time overlay plotting of earthquakes, storm tracks and tropical tracks...not to mention a compass!

We hope you enjoy this app, and that you find it to be the best of the best - we'd be happy with nothing less. I use it daily for my weather needs, and I hope you'll find it second-nature to do the same. Simply search for NECN or NECN Wx in the App Store or Android Market.
